I didn’t know what to write about today. I was at a Corporate Event yesterday in Niagara Falls Canada. The company was one I had read at a year ago. I was delivering tea leaf readings this year and had read Tarot cards last year. A guest at the event came up to me and sat down and she said “Oh I am so happy to see you again. I have to tell you that you saved my life. Last year you read the cards for me and in the reading you told me to check out a problem in my breast.” She said she went to the doctor to check on her health because I had channelled this information and even though she had no symptoms. Turns out the doctor found a tiny lump and they did a biopsy which was pre-cancerous and the doctor said it was good that they’d found this so soon. She is watching this every six months she gets her breast checked up. I felt so happy to hear this. It made me know that I am truly walking my soul’s path. I don’t always speak of health issues to clients especially at corporate events but she must have asked this. And one way or another trusting my higher self enabled me to say what I felt and saw and help her and I am so grateful for that. I do still have to state that my readings are for entertainment only and it is up to the client to do with it what they want.
The Moon is in Gemini and which at its core is the mind, the apparent duality that we perceive. I will briefly spec out the planets but really watch this Video below.
Moon opposes Saturn in Sagittarius sign of truth, justice and inspiration.
Moon and Sun are incompatible today, Scorpio Sun and Gemini’s lite energy do not connect.
Go deeper, this is the time of the year of Death.
Moon squares Neptune in Pisces
Dream a little, dream both sides, see from a new perspective.
Moon is also inconjunct to Pluto in Capricorn
You can talk all you want but corporate 1% ain’t paying any attention.
Gemini in the Tarot is the sign associated with The LOVERS TRUMP #6
“The Victory” by Phoebe Anna Traquair 1893-1901
just watch this. Marianne Williamson speaks from her heart and soul.
Mercury and the sign of VIRGO are the stars of the show today and in the upcoming weeks. Last night the messenger had a big meeting with the big Kahuna Jupiter at the last “critical” degree of Leo in the wee hours. I was dreaming like crazy last night, how bout you?
Yes looking very forwards to the 888 tomorrow,we will do a ceremony I will make a special Lucky 888 tincture. These dates don’t come around very often. I see on my website it says 88 view per hour. Validation! thanks.
Mercury goes home to its other mutable sign VIRGO today- August 27.
VIRGO the Virgin is the largest Constellation, She is THE Great GODDESS the Divine Mother.
This energy will ground and center our minds. Mercury in Virgo helps us to perfect, organize, and focus on the details. Virgo rules service to others as well as our work and workplaces.
HEALTH
is very important to Virgo, You can stick to a healthier and more nutritious natural wholesome diet.Virgo is the harvest, the plants and herbs of the earth. Try using a homeopath, naturopath, Chinese accupuncture or ayurvedic specialist.
NATURE
walk in nature, breathe in nature,
MEDITATION
mental clarity are all part of Virgo Mercury.Whew we need that.
REAPING THE HARVEST
what is it you have worked very hard on that you can reap benefits from now? It is a time to receive, and to prepare for winter.
Virgo your time is coming up very soon. Jupiter enters your sign August 11 for a whole year I will write about that.
MERCURY the planet is personified as THE MAGICIAN Tarot Trump # 1
THOTH TAROT # 1 the MAGUS Mercury
The magical skill we all have is our minds. With our consciousness we can create whatever magic we wish to.
Yes you are a wizard or a witch. We all are. You are what you think.
The Magician usually has a lemniscate or INFINITY symbol above his head. As does the woman in the card of STRENGTH which is LEO energy. He controls ALL TIME.
The mind is INFINITE. Mercury is a hermaphrodite, both masculine and feminine. He symbolizes the two-lobed brain, the conscious and unconscious sides of ourselves.
The MAGICIAN is a trickster.
Mercury is now in VIRGO one of the two signs it rules.
Keywords: grounded thinking, work, service to others, perfectionism, analysis, communications, health, discipline, order, humility.
The Sign of Virgo the Virgin earth is personified as THE HERMIT #9 Trump an initiation card
Guilded Tarot Hermit
THE HERMIT is not necessarily alone or to have totally abandoned all worldly possession. the Hermit is of the earth very much so.
He is usually pictured as a wise old man with a long beard in profile holding up a lamp, a light to guide the way.
He is very much the Inner GUIDE, the one who is always there inside of you.
Just quiet that busy mind and you will find the Hermit, as your ancestors, an unbroken lineage working for and protecting you.
You are what you eat in all ramifications. Consuming information, food, energy. Think about how you assimilate.
As Virgo rules the upper intestines, the Hermit could be thought of as your Gut Instincts, {intestines were used for divination}
Use this time with Mercury in VIRGO to tune into that ancient wisdom residing already there.
THE SUN will enter Virgo August /23
Solar Eclipse New Moon in Virgo September 12-23.
MEDITATIONS WITH THE MAGICIAN Mercury
How many balls, chickens, knives are you currently juggling? Metaphorically speaking
What is your relationship with your inner hermaphrodite? Bruce Jenner is our current Magician.
How IN TUNE are you? What kind of mind games do you play on yourself?
Dialogue with the HERMIT daily as a meditation.
Ask him questions, he is waiting to guide you. The Hermit can be a female guide as well, the Virgin Goddess, the keeper of the harvest.
Why am I so afraid of being alone? Very important for women to ask this question.
Talk to your body ask each part how it is feeling, You will be amazed at how correct this is.
“April is the cruelest month” these are the opening words from T.S. Elliot’s The Waste Land 1922.
These words popped into my head as I’ve been thinking of different ways to help guide you through this INTENSE April Grand Cardinal Cross to the Max, 2 Eclipses this month,the 5th of 7 stations of T- Squares.
I always have known that our consciousness and the Universe is linked up, “the as above, so below.” Thoth’s famous Hermetic maxim. The Universe is always sending us bits of information, symbolic crumbs and threads on the trail, if we see them and follow them. We all get the clues. None of us is clueless.
I’m trusting my guides to lead me through my desire for images, dreams, connections, textures with which to wax poetically and informatively on the revolutions of the planets on their axis, planes, nodes.. I am trying to find a context a connection and guidance from Elliot’s poem to our present situation, using it like an oracle. Hey lets just try it on for fun.
I must confess I’m not a Literary Major. But I have always loved poetry, symbols, archeology, ancient history and mythology. The poem alludes to the Holy Grail, Ezekiel,Ecclesiastes, Tristan and Isolde,
I’ll just use the headings of T.S. Elliot’s poem for intentions and instructions.
1. BURIAL OF THE DEAD
This is PLUTO in CAPRICORN.
Death of the old corporate Patriarchal structure, banking system, the PLUTOCRACY. Pluto in earth sign of the world is shaking up governments, in many places and literally shaking up the earth-Earthquakes, mudslides, etc.
On a personal level, it’s the death of the old ways that do not promote new life. What do you need to let die in order to be reborn? Pluto is directly opposites the United States Sun at 13 degrees Cancer now. Rebirth of the U.S. of A.
ESPECIALLY peeps with CAPRICORN born January 2-6 and those with planets 11-15.
I went to a shiva yesterday. In the Jewish religion, this is the seven days of mourning immediately following the funeral which must be observed. A cousin of my mother’s passed away suddenly at 83. That’s one complete cycle of Uranus.
11. A GAME OF CHESS
Isn’t life a game of chess? How about we see this as just part of the game. MARS RETROGRADE in LIBRA. – calculating your move, it’s always a game of opposing partners. Are we moving in the right direction? Maybe the “right direction’ was wrong. Question your motivation especially in relationships.
LIBRA peeps born October 5th-10th this means YOU, and also any planets here get Retrograded- steamrolled.
111. The FIRE SERMON
URANUS in ARIES – speaking in flaming torches, firing up,inspiring the crowd- is this the U.S. backed protests in Venezuela?Uranus is squaring PLUTO and JUPITER inspiring the new LIFE FORCE, the spark.
ARIES peeps born MArch 31- April 6- you are to wake up and wake others up. Also check your chart for planets and houses.
IV. DEATH BY WATER
JUPITER in CANCER opposite PLUTO in CAPRICORN and squaring MARS and URANUS
Emotional deaths, breaking old emotionally negative contracts, those that do not support us . Letting the old emotional ties die allows us to be more whole emotionally, bestows upon us self esteem, unconditional love, emotional security and safety. Literally drownings, floods, over reacting emotionally.
CANCER peeps born July 3- 8th emotional rebirth for you. Also any planets at these degrees-same thing.
V. WHAT THE THUNDER SAID
This symbolizes both Jupiter- the hurler of Lightning bolts Zeus and Uranus is the Heavenly Storm God.
Uranus the awakener, he symbolizes Higher Consciousness. Uranus in ARIES is new technologies and inventions FREEDOM and revolution.
Thunder can mean bombs, bad weather, earthquakes, awakening.
Uranus previous cycle through Aries began in 1929-1930 the Great depression, the Stock Market crash. We are starting a new cycle built on that past.
Also in the poem- I’m excerpting about the seer,
“Madame Sosostris, famous clairvoyante,…
is known to be the wisest woman in Europe,
With a wicked pack of cards. Here, said she,
Here is Belladonna, the Lady of the Rocks,
the lady of situations.
Here is the man with three staves, and here the Wheel.”
The meaning I get from these lines:
Sosostris – means S.O.S. EMERGENCY, ostris means oestre, the pagan name for EASTER- timing!!!
Be clear- the wise woman is the anima, the intuition which every one of us has.
Belladonna is a hallucinogenic plant, or awakening the pineal gland, Inner visioning, MEDITATION.
Beautiful Lady is again the Goddess, the Soul,
Lady of the Rocks, Mother Mary, the Madonna, the Divine Feminine, our grounding.
The situation.
These are actual Tarot Cards – the 3 of wands, which rules this exact time of year March 31- April 10.
The Wheel of FORTUNE TRUMP #10 which is ruled by JUPITER.
Inspirational Card of the Month The Wheel of Fortune with the Flower of Life
My interpretation: This is a very fortunate opportunity. The karmic wheel is turning. Use the time wisely.
Let the poetic symbols seep into you and roll them around for a bit to taste them.
I love it.
Let me know what you think. I’ve never approached an Astrology reading in this way before.

THE CARDINAL CROSS TIMES
Aug 6- 7th 2010 Tara Greene’s Astrology Updates and advice for the ongoing continuous stress of Uranian Plutonian revolutionize and change now or soon die and maxxed out Cardinal crosses including a number of planets!
Since the June 26 Lunar eclipse Grand Cardinal Cross which instigated these 2010-2012 CArdinal Years there’s now more energies applying again, more hits to get us up and moving.
These days there is now Jupiter and Uranus in Aries, Pluto in Capricorn, The Moon in early degrees of Cancer, Venus just entered Libra, her Home sign, cozying up to Mars and Saturn in the scales of Karmic Justice. Producing, count ’em 10 squares and 7 oppositions! That’s a whopping tension.
That number of new beginnings-early Cardinal Sign planets in Grand Cross formation hasn’t been seen in about 2,000 years!!!! What happened back then?
The Jupiter Pluto square will be in effect for the nest 6 weeks! Jupiter is Mr. Big, Jupiter rules foreigners, airplanes, religious fanatics, higher education, travel, philosophy, legal matters, risk tasking. Jupiter is THE Wheel of Fortune in the Tarot. Pluto is Hades lord of the Underworld, Soul presence, shadow, Pluto if used very consciously is power and riches. Negatively its’s secrets, power and control over others. But its all good,as its’ purpose is all about destruction or de-construction & resurrection. So how’s your personal D & R. going?
How Phoenix do you feel? Or how close or far are you from that event horizon?
Pluto rules riches and worldly power in Capricorn and Jupiter is BIG, so large market falls are possible, big new laws which may limit people which then brings Uranus also in early Aries into the picture as the revolution is beginning to heat up.
Cardinal crosses- who cares?
It all adds up to MUCHO STRESS! These planets Jupiter and Uranus, Mars Venus and Saturn all squared by Pluto and now opposed by the Cancer Moon are rubbbing against each other at 90 degrees angels and 180 degree -tug of war oppositions. With the newish Venus and Mars action with Saturn in Libra it’s supposed to be about Balance, fair play, equality, right? Jupiter and Uranus in Aries say its a whole new ball game, innovate now or forever kick yourself in the butt. This is just the preliminaries.
Jupiter and Uranus are both Retrograding back to Pisces – Uranus on Aug 13th, Jupiter on Sept. 9 right after the mid Virgo New Moon and the beginnning of the Jewish New Year, Jupiter is Yahweh, so some kind of a spiritual karmic replay with Israel is forthcoming. Perhaps war!!
These’re KArmic Times all right!
ARE WE PRODUCING PEARLS YET?
I feel the planet to work with – albeit quickly as she will only be in Cancer from Friday Aug 6th at 2:50 pm PDT till Aug 8 4:23 pm. But La Luna goes Void of Course on the 7th at 11:46 am and that’s the best time to do meditations or ceremonies. Sat Auh 7th around noon until Sunday Aug 8 at 4:23 pm PDT. Interesting its 88 again.
in this mix is the Moon, as she is once again in early Cancer as she was on June 26 the newcomer in this Grand cross. Squares can be liked to sand in the proverbial oysters, irritating as hell to the bivalve but what’s the oyster do? puts some spit and saliva on it to mitigate those outchy hard edges and what’s the outcome? a Pearl!
Venus and Saturn are both at their best in Libra, Venus rules it, Saturn is exalted there. This promises more harmony, equanimity, balancing and peace for a short period. Mars is weak in Libra the sign opposite the one he rules Aries. Moon rules Cancer in this cardinal cross. These are the ongoing Cardinal Cross years 2010-2012.
We are at a Cross Roads,Cardinal refers to beginnings. This is the shift of the world ages.
Planets are near where they were at the Great Depression of 1929. The 60’s generation that was seeded by Uranus and Pluto in Virgo with Saturn opposite in Pisces is having their collective mid life crisis. Things are tense, the forces of old established Patriarchal Capricorn corporate authority is being overhauled and restructured and recycled and destroyed by Plutonian influences. But not until they try to initiate fascism and the New world order, everyone is chipped and watched and police state politics, GMO, mad cow, brain meltdowns etc.
The Catholic Church is falling apart, their known abuse of young men, the Church’s homosexual shadows, it’s unholy piosness and callous cruelty in the false name of righteousness and blashepmy of Jesus is being uncovered for all to see. The church is responsible for burning and torturing over nine million people, mainly women in over 300 years,taking over their property over falsely accusing them of being witches and consorting with the devil. All lies. The churches is one of the richest most powerfull Institutions in the World. It is almost infallable. But fall it will,as people wake up and learn to see with their own eyes as Jesus said.
This is one of the purposes of these Cardinal crosses, to raise awareness.
I know people are overracting, over stressed. My experience with all this- dumping, shadow spitting and all the dark parts that no one wants to own comming out in the clear blue light of day is a cleansing. Dont react to any of it. It’s like a fire drill. Remain calm, it’ll all blow over like smoke, like ashes. See it for what it is. That’s how you start making pearls of wisdom.
It is a g reat clearing and cleansing. It isn’t necessarily pretty. My sense is everyone really needs to go into their hearts, and ask what their own personal truth is to cultivate and be in a place of love. The new frequencies and dimensions incoming are very high. We are walking on a knife blade. All there is is now. People are sick of too much information, false reality, over complexity. Slow everything down and simplify your life.
Neptune and Chiron are still inclose proximity. Chiron re-entered Aquarius July 20, he stays in Aquarius till 2011 and closely aligns with Neptune again at years end. The Wounded Healer Chiron and Neptune the planet of egolessness, spirit, Bliss, dissolving into Oneness, dreams, artistry, illusion, delusion, fantasy, denial, oil, addictions are showing us the cosmic signature.The Gulf oil crisis is the negative side of their cheek to cheek dance. The positive side is Healing of one’s soul, of the spiritual wounds. Be joyous.
Aug 8th Venus and Saturn conjunct. Time to get serious in binding relationships. Many relationships end now, it is a karmic turnign point. How in balance is your life, love, finances and artistic endeavours? How much beauty do you create,appreciate, own? New art forms will come out of this cardinal cross.
With Moon in Cancer – be nice to your tummy. If you need to crawl under the covers in a fetal position and suck your thumb or hold your blankie that’s ok too. And let the tears fall as well.
I find crying to be a great release from all the tension. Security needs and issues come up in all relationships very strongly. Power backlashes are the result of insecurity. Remember that.
Meditate and breath in the Light. Powerfull spiritual master teacer are nearby and hovering in very close waiting and watching and coming if you ask. Dont be afraid. remember where you came from. We all come from the stars.
I was visiting friends of mine up in the Bancroft area in Northernish Ontario the other day. They mentioned a lot of UFO sightings in the country and Pleiadian sightings. Call in the ones who love you who are in the Light to help you navigate through these turbulent times.
